Know your boundaries

As athletes, we have rights and obligations in nature - only sometimes, we do not know or are not aware of them. Let‘s respect the forest more for what it is: Habitat for animals and plants and recreation area for humans.
Stay on the marked bike trails: so that the wild animals can get used to bikers.
